Villeneuvois Florent Lemont, representative of Emmanuel Macron in the canton of Villeneuve-lès-Avignon, and Monique Novaretti, president of the PRG du Gard, react after calls from losing candidates to support “the republican spirit”.
The representative of Emmanuel Macron in the canton of Villeneuve-lès-Avignon, the Villeneuve opposition municipal councilor Florent Lemont reacts after the results obtained by his candidate who came first in his commune.
“If my thoughts are with the Villeneuvoises and the Villeneuvois, they are also with those who in their differences and their oppositions call to defend the republican spirit so clearly against the dark spirits who seek to push us towards the exit of Europe while its borders are shaking“he wrote in a press release while welcoming “the political courage of Valérie Pécresse, Anne Hidalgo, Carole Delga, Fabien Roussel, Yannick Jadot to clearly support Emmanuel Macron”.
For her part Monique Novaretti, cRegional councilor, municipal councilor of Villeneuve-lès-Avignon and president of the PRG du Gard “notes with great concern that the party of Marine Le Pen, by concealing its true ideology, no longer frightens our fellow citizens and is becoming more and more anchored in our territories“.
“The Radical Left Party has tried everything for 18 months to bring out a single candidacy representing the secular, social, republican and European left. Unfortunately, egos have been the strongest” she regrets. “This left has a huge inventory work to do, to get rid of all those who have led us to this very sad record“she considers while declaring that being “fiercely hostile to all extremes“she will vote “without hesitation for Emmanuel Macron, saying to him: Be careful, the house is on fire, the left-wing electorate is waiting for firm statements on the environment, pension reform and on the institutions“.
